- Throughout 'The Sopranos', food features very heavily, and amongst the myriad characters of the show one of the greatest fans of food is clearly the capo Vito Spatafore. On his little vacation to New England, Vito develops a taste for Johnny cakes - today we will recreate these cornmeal pancakes from 'The Sopranos'.

Recipe:
Take 1 cup cornmeal and add 1 ½ cups of boiling water, stirring the cornmeal as you do so. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter and 1 teaspoon of salt to the mixture too, stirring well so it forms a nice semi-thick batter. Set to one side.
For the sausage seasoning you’ll need sage, thyme and basil. Chop all the herbs finely. Add the herbs to pre-ground sausage meat, along with a generous helping of pepper and salt. Mix well.
If you don't have a sausage stuffer, improvise with half of an old plastic water bottle. Take sausage casings, tie off one end, and attach the open end to the bottle - this will function as a funnel. Now stuff the sausage meat through the bottle funnel, filling the sausage casing. When you’re happy, twist each segment to create links.
Add the sausages to a pan with a little oil, and cook them till they’ve browned off a bit - then transfer to the oven to cook while you fry the Johnny Cakes. Heat a pan up to medium high heat and melt a good amount of butter in the pan. Now add a ladleful of batter to the hot pan, forming neat round pancakes. Watch the johnny cakes closely as they cook, ensuring that they do not burn. A few minutes each side should suffice. Cook until golden brown. Serve with butter and maple syrup.
Please ignore the graphic glitches at 1:52 and 2:10, just Premiere Pro breaking my balls
I thought it was some mediocre joke about having to blur your sausage on full display
Premier Pro never had the makings of a varsity athlete
I loved this recipe like a brother-in-law.
He hand-made three sausages, guy was a CZcams channel owner!
His kitchen looked like shit
His Premier Pro graphical glitches looked like sh*t!
@@LjubicaServaasdamn chill it’s for like a second each time. Not that distracting
@@Valorant-is-Trash It’s a joke quote from the Pine Barrens episode, a play Paulie saying” He’s an interior decorator” and then Christopher saying “Well his apartment looked like shit”. Sorry I had to explain the joke to you.
@jammin2575 I am so dumb for not getting the reference
"Turn that off!" Phil was really disgusted watching those bodybuilders flex in that episode😅
Or was he…?
There’s a theory that he was a closeted homosexual and this tv station wasn’t helping, he vehemently against homosexuality to the point it looked like an internal conflict and when they caught Vito in his motel he steps out the closet.
Very allegorical.
"20 minutes in the kitchen. I wanted to go to the market for breakfast sausages... I compromised. I made my own with a plastic bottle and ground neighbor's cat."
0:41 Well, you oughta know, sweetie
I knew that was comin'!
Fuckin Arthur Buco over here
Ayyy fuggetaboitit
Vito’s a come from behind kinda guy 😅😂😂😂
Gotta warn ya' , these videos are addictive
I heard Vito had Five Guys the other night. Then he went for something to eat😂
Ooooh, we got Don freakin Rickles ovah heah!
BADDA BING!!
3:34 had me in stitches lmao
I thought this was gonna be a comedy video but you actually made Johnny Cakes 😂 thanks for the recipe
You're welcome, Don Corleone
In the Appalachians, we'd call these corn fritters or hot water cornbread. Mostly called hot water cornbread south of where I'm from as well. I never had much of a taste for them but they go great with a fried salmon patty.
Vito, eating Johnny Cakes and greasing the union.
_"Making the Lollypops of the Good Ship Lollypop that Vito was the Captain of."_
I appreciate every little detail, down to the paparazzi background music. To Junior !
I wanted Jimmy Deans, but I compromised. I gobbled hand-stuffed sausages. I wanted to write a book about boxing, but I compromised. I got punched out in a parking lot by the winner of the New England Fireman's Mustache Contest
0:42 Vito Took Showing Appreciation To Supporting Those Who Serve This Great Country We Call AMERICA to a whole new level.
This guy has the makings of a varsity chef.
Underrated channel.
i never thought i'd learn to make a new england staple from a brit gushing about an italian-american series.
This video made me laugh a lot more than expected. Well done.
This is the best channel I've ever seen in my life
Your videos have me howling like an idiot. 🤣😅😆 I wish I could give this 100 Thumbs up! Your sense of humour is beyond hilarious. Kudos to you for making sausages for authenticity! That meal looks really good.
Am I the only one that couldn't help but notice that "Paparazzi" by Xzibit is playing in the background?
These videos are perfection
The effort you put into these videos is remarkable! This is a level of quality you normally only see in a million+ subscriber channel. Seriously, you kick ass man! Keep up the great work! You'll get to that 7-digit subscriber mark for sure!
He was gay,Vito ?
Nah he's a wryetah. Like an awthah.
It was his blood pressure medication, fucked with his head y'know?
AIDS?
He's a married man, with a goomah
@@teapot6517 NOBODYS GOT AIDS
Actually kind of impressed with the diy sausage stuffer. Would work ok in a pinch and could be improve by using the lower half of the cut off bottle(inverted) as a means of pushing the meat back through. Great for camping.
That's a really good idea with the lower half of the bottle, it would have made the stuffing procedure far easier!
such a damn underrated vidddddd
Just found your channel, it’s amazing ❤
I love you Johnny cakes
Criminally underrated channel, how do you not have more views
Now to make that Tripe n Tomatoes Richie Aprile takes to carmela :D
Bro your channel is hilarious! Thanks for the laughs .
Thanks! please do ‘Paulie’s stabbed heart’ too the next time!!!!
Really sick video. Editing was great along with the easy to follow recipe. Keep it up im here for it
This feels incorporated guy, he's more creative than Spielberg
Watching all your your videos. They are really good. May I ask about your stove top burners? What make are they? I've never seen anything like them. Cheers.
Vito had a pretty hefty sausage stuffer if ya catch my drift
Isnt it a coincidence that Johnny Cakes made Johnny Cakes
How did you put those words behind Chwistuhfuh? They weren't there before
I loved him like a brother in law
These are gold. lmao
Masterpiece
Good video, he says white cornmeal though is that not different to regular?
vito took his johnny cakes with a side of cak
Vito ordered a sausage with 2 hard boiled eggs on the side. Squirt of mayo on the side
Turn that off! LOL excellent
"Vito Spatafore is an Ass Muncha!..."
My doctor wouldn't write me a note. He said that despite all the faces I was making the whole time, he wasn't convinced!
Next you should make uncle jrs alzheimers smoothie
Brilliant idea, what was in it? Milk, avocado and tuna?
@@feelsincorporated1918 I don't remember 😂
Bobby, make my nephew an alzheimer smoothie
🤣@@TheWhippingPost
im 50 and in NE...never heard of them
a couple of three links of sausage
Some say that they found feel incorporated somewhere in a motel in fort lee after this.
You like Johnny cakes
I like Johnny cakes
We're not the same
This is great
Was your bottom impacted after eating these?
You will have our sausages.
The secret incridient is blood pressure medication.
Didn't the chef say white cornmeal?
you didn't have a sausage stuffer.....
Every region of America claims these as their own. In the American south these are called hoecakes and in the west/southwest they are corn dodgers.
Nice
Love these
Were they good?
Very tasty, would highly recommend
Aids?
Its a joke. ITS A JOKE!
Pizza Calzone, Buffalo mozzarella,Olive Oil.They eat putzi before we gave them gift of our cousine
Uplands of New England?
Buy your own sausages?
You people were eatin Putzi before they gave you the gift of their cuisine.
corn meal is a lot more coarse than corn flour
I think I'll stick with regular pancakes.
Bucco’s zucchini flowers
Great idea, I'm adding this to my list
You disrespected Phil personally with this recipe.
lmao
Great stuff. Btw In some scenes like 1:52 there are some pop ups from your video editing software , might be good to take care of those before you upload!
lol thanks for pointing that out, I hadn't even noticed - bloody premiere pro. I'm going to add a blur, reuploading would probably tank the video views
Being British there are many reasons why I would not want to live in the US but American breakfast is the main reason. Breakfast should be savoury not sweet
He was gay Gary Cooper?
Okay, so you _didn't_ make Johnny Cakes, as the recipe clearly calls for WHITE cornmeal, and yours was all yellow. (Cue the Coldplay song.) Oy vey...
Real johnny cakes are made with white cornmeal. What you've created here is simply fried polenta. You've disappointed me in ways I can't even begin to tell you, and you've put all of us at risk.
SO DISGUSTING
